  • Half a mile from sandy Shanklin beach
  • Kids' clubs, pool, spa pool, diner, bar and restaurant
  • Varied entertainment in the evenings
Location, location, location… Lower Hyde Holiday Park is only half a mile from the glorious sandy sweep of Shanklin Beach, one of the most popular spots on the Isle of Wight. If the sun has got his hat on, you can stretch out on the loungers beside the heated outdoor pool and watch the kids zoom down the flume; if it’s raining, there’s a spa pool inside instead. And whatever the forecast, you can look lively with a kickabout on the all-weather sports court. The site also has the Barnhouse bar and restaurant, and evening entertainment is sorted at the spacious Squires Showbar with its busy schedule of live bands, discos and cabaret. Lower Hyde also has a full range of kids' clubs, with characters such as Sparky to keep the younger ones fizzing, and suitably cool activities such as film making for teens.

Liked Amazing friendly staff, great activities and very warm outdoor pool. Level pitch with electric close to a water tap

Disliked Showers need a refurb and the water kept going hot and cold, mouldy seals and missing tiles. Were cleaned regularly but just very old. So many crows and seagulls and pigeons around the camping area, noisy and annoying

Liked Great place to stay for all ages loved the location near to shanklin town and old town good services on the park to for eating,swimming laundry shop and much more toilets and showers were nice and clean and great walks to take from the park

Disliked The only thing i noticed was people staying in caravans did not no where the grey water disposal was located and I seen them emptying there toilets down the grids where the drinking water taps were this left a nasty smell and our pitch was near to this so maybe some better clear signs to customers to show where the correct disposal area is would help them.

Liked Large pitches nicely spaced out. Clean toilets and showers. Ricky ( the go to man) was amazing and always popping around to make sure everything was ok. Walking distance to town and supermarkets. Lovely walks locally.

Local attractions

Aside from its fab beach, Shanklin also has a good variety of shops, seaside amusements and eateries, with some of the best examples of the latter to be found in the Old Village, a picture-perfect cluster of thatched cottages and winding streets. The Shanklin Chine is a lovely wooded gorge with waterfalls and nature trails, and is doubly atmospheric when it’s lit up on summer evenings. For those who like exploring by bike or Shank’s pony, there are miles of footpaths and cycling tracks around Lower Hyde Holiday Park. Some of the Isle of Wight’s most popular family attractions are nearby too, including Carisbrooke Castle, Dinosaur Isle and the Blackgang Chine theme park.
